hi guys,i have just purchased a custom pc without an os,i have everything connected properly,and when i turn the monitor and pc on to try and start loading xp on,there is nothing on the screen at all. i have amd 64 3200,2x512mg of ram,asus a8v deluxe motherboard,ati radeon 9600 pro video card. I dont even get anything on the screen,and i have also tried another monitor that i have that is with a working pc,and still nothing. i bought another pc a while back with no os,and all i did was plug in everything,put the xp cd in and away i went-no problems. the only difference with my new pc is that it has a video card and the other didnt.any help would be greatly appreciated. My monitor can only be plugged into the video card-could this be the problem?
